Chapter 440: Sunflower Facing the Apocalypse 3
The street outside gradually quieted down.
Xu Yuxi looked at the time on her phone; it was almost two o’clock.
She pondered for a moment, then quietly got up, dressed, and headed towards the shop she had seen earlier today.
On the ancient town’s street, only the street lights on both sides were still lit, emitting a hazy glow.
Xu Yuxi walked alone down the street, yet she didn’t feel scared at all; instead, there was a subtle sense of anticipation.
Getting closer, closer.
Then she saw a lamp, the Dragon and Phoenix Glazed Lamp. The part of the dragon lit up, emitting a soft light, as if calling her to hurry over.
She walked closer and closer, once again seeing the massive golden ingot and the stunning man in a Tang suit smiling at the entrance.
"Guest, you’re here," Dong Xiao’s voice was gentle.
"Hello." Xu Yuxi felt no fear in her heart; she returned the smile.
"Come in, please. To see our shop means you are a person of destiny for us." Dong Xiao gestured invitingly.
Xu Yuxi hesitated, but still stepped forward and walked through the gate.
Upon entering, she saw a spacious hall, surrounded by many ancient and aromatic items. In the center of the hall, a woman was curled up in a large and soft chair, flipping through a notebook. Behind her stood a beautiful woman in a cheongsam who was staring at her with wide eyes.
"Welcome, have a seat." The seated woman raised her head upon hearing her footsteps.
Xu Yuxi locked eyes with the woman, her mind momentarily blank.
She’s so beautiful! Is she the boss of this shop? She’s more gorgeous than any celebrity I’ve seen!
"Bo-Boss, hello," Xu Yuxi greeted awkwardly.
"Sit down," Tianmiao smiled.
After sitting down, Xu Yuxi couldn’t help but glance around the shop again. This antique shop—she had truly never seen anything like it.
"Guest, I am the owner of this shop, Tianmiao. What would you like to purchase? I sell everything here, including wishes," Tianmiao handed the notebook to Dong Xiao as she sat up straight and smiled. "Any wish can be granted. You can only purchase one wish."
Xu Yuxi was stunned. What does this mean? Wishes can be sold? Any wish can be granted? Is she joking?
"Am I dreaming?" Xu Yuxi asked herself, then immediately shook her head. "No, I’m not dreaming. Any wish? Can fulfill my every wish? What kind of price do I have to pay? Have I entered some other dimension?"
"Indeed, any wish. As for the price, it’s one you can afford and won’t touch your boundaries," Tianmiao leaned back in her chair, speaking slowly.
Xu Yuxi fell silent.
Her wish, what was her wish...
Can it really be fulfilled for her?
Is there really such a magical thing?
"I want...to be happy. Can that be?" Xu Yuxi remained silent for a long time before finally saying softly.
"Is that your wish?" Tianmiao asked softly with a smile.
"Yes, that’s my wish, and also my mother’s wish," Xu Yuxi nodded emphatically.
"Alright, then, as you wish," Tianmiao’s voice turned ethereal and mystical.
"Guest, please keep these two items. You will be happy," Dong Xiao stepped forward and handed Tianmiao’s notebook and a Jade Pendant to Xu Yuxi.
